This cookie will melt in your mouth.

3 1/2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
2 cups butter, softened
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup flaked coconut

In large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except coconut. Beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed, 3-4 minutes. Stir in coconut.

Divide dough into halves; shape each half into a 12x2-inch roll. Wrap in wax paper and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.

Heat oven to 350 Degrees F.

Cut rolls into 1/4 inch slices. Place 2-3 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake for 9-14 minutes, or until edges are lightly browned. Cool slightly; remove.
